Hackberry Cemetary
Grayson County, TX
Hackberry Cemetary is located on private property. Take the Farmington Road Exit off of US 75 near Van Alstyne.
On the we west Frontage Road going south you will come to the Hackberry Rd on the right. Turn right and continue
about 1/2 mile. The property is on the left side of the road. There is a gap-gate in the fence where you enter the
property and walk about 1/4 mile into the field, turn left and go about 400 feet, climb a barbed wire fence and you
see the chain link fence surrounding the cemetary. A gate in the fence allows access. These tombstone inscriptions
are from work done by Ruth Baker in 1981 and Shirley Webb in 1995.
